Which cards are the red face cards? J of diamonds, Q of diamonds, K of diamonds, J of hearts, Q of hearts, and K of hearts.

Six cards are red face cards. Since there are 52 cards in a full deck, that means 46 cards are NOT red face cards.

So, the probability you are NOT dealt a red face card is: 46/52...or, 23/26.
